REUNITED AND IT FEELS SO GOOOOOOD



I bought a lug of peaches and am madly working to get them peeled and cut up before they spoil. I added a little thyme to the fruit before pouring it it into the crust. Please oh please tell me you get the reference to that ubiquitous song from the late 70's. I believe it replaced the Carpenters' We've Only Just Begun in the wedding DJ portfolio. It was running through my head all morning as I made the filling.

Mmmmm....I like peach pie almost as much as spankings!

Why the thyme? I've never heard of that. Those pies look awesome. My peach tree is loaded this year and I believe in about a week, they should be ripe. I just need to get them before the deer do!

I generally have a bumper crop of herbs growing and have been inspired by a couple baking-themed blogs I stalk. I throw mint into fruit bowls and found thyme is good with peaches. Next time you have a nice, fragrant peach in your hand, sniff some basil with it. You'll see what I mean ... some things you never considered just work together.

Kristabel, that's because peaches look like little butts.
